A 96-page internal New York Times report,
sent to top executives last month by a committee led by the publisher’s
son and obtained by BuzzFeed, paints a dark picture of a newsroom
struggling more dramatically than is immediately visible to adjust to
the digital world, a newsroom that is hampered primarily by its own
storied culture.

The Times report was finalized March 24 by a committee of digitally oriented staffers led by reporter A.G. Sulzberger. His father, Times Publisher Arthur Sulzberger, fired Executive Editor Jill Abramson Tuesday, a decision that doesn’t appear immediately related to the paper’s digital weaknesses.
